AI Inference Cost Calculator

Model a ai inference cost calculator scenario with editable assumptions and instant results.

Inputs

Build your scenario

Live
Key resultStable scenario
2,850 USD

Instant scenario result based on the current assumptions.

Scenario insight

The current assumptions produce a workable reference scenario.

FormulaMonthly cost = calls × (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) ÷ 1,000,000.

*Results are scenario estimates only and do not constitute professional advice.

Worked example

These are demonstration assumptions, not market data or a recommendation. Use Reset example above to reproduce this result, then replace the values for your own scenario.

Input Tokens
2500 Token
Output Tokens
800 Token
Calls
100000 times
Input Price
5 USD
Output Price
20 USD

Example result: 2,850 USD

The example is fixed while your live result above changes. Differences in display rounding do not change the underlying calculation.

How to use

Start with the most uncertain input

01

Use real data

Replace examples with real costs, frequencies, and probabilities first.

02

Compare three scenarios

Compare conservative, baseline, and optimistic cases instead of treating one result as a forecast.

03

Save and verify

Save the assumptions and update them when measured data becomes available.

FAQ

About this calculation

How is this calculated?

Monthly cost = calls × (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) ÷ 1,000,000.

What does this estimate exclude?

Prices are entered per million tokens. Defaults are illustrative, not live prices. Cached tokens, batches, retries and infrastructure are excluded.
